Turcite®

Turcite® designates a series of tailor-made, high quality thermoplastics that have been developed for use as guide elements (bearings, bushings, etc.) Turcite ® bearings are used to guide pistons and rods in cylinders to provide a good radial loading capacity (15 N/mm2 max dynamic). Turcite ® materials are well known for their low friction, heat resistance, wide temperature range performance, high chemical resistance and excellent wear characteristics. The temperature range for Turcite ® materials is approximately -60° C to 150° C. Applications utilizing either Hydraulics or Pneumatics can benefit from the use of Turcite ® products. Piston and rod applications with oscillating, rotary, or helical movement can benefit from the use of Turcite ® Slydrings ®.
